Reconnecting Israeli scientists to Israel:
Prof. @orlyavni , Dean, joined a senior scientific delegation to Europe, meeting researchers in Berlin, Zurich and Cambridge. The mission: open doors, build networks and show Israeli scientists abroad the opportunities back home.

Miao Gui and @OrbachRon summarise current structural and functional insights into conserved and lineage-specific MIPs, their roles in shaping ciliary architecture, and the consequences of their disruption on ciliary motility.

Ever wondered what microtubule inner proteins (MIPs) are and what they actually do? Or perhaps you already know about them, but find it hard to keep track of which ones are conserved across species and how they support ciliary structure and function?

@miao_gui and I wrote a Review for @J_Cell_Sci special issue “Cilia and Flagella: From Basic Biology to Disease”. It provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of MIP structure, function, and the latest tools used to study them, crafted to serve both newcomers and experts

Thrilled to share our new work in Nature Neuroscience!
Together with amazing collaborators and led by Ariel Ionescu, we discovered that muscle-derived miR-126 controls local axonal TDP-43 synthesis and protects neuromuscular junctions in ALS.

FINALLY! This was challenging to publish but we believe it is an important discovery: rdcu.be/eATDa

A huge milestone for the lab, and for me personally 💪Thank you Israel Science Foundation #ISF for supporting our research on #nocebo effects in everyday life. We'll examine how health perceptions can causally shape physical health outcomes, and study the mechanisms involved.

Congrats to our #ISF 2025–2026 grant recipients from the @Bar_ilan Azrieli faculty of medicine: Dr. @LironRozenkrant is exploring how subjective health perceptions impact physical health; Prof. David Karasik is studying early bone development to prevent osteoporosis later in life; Prof. @ChaimPutterman is investigating a protein that may drive brain damage in lupus.

A New study from @Bar_ilan’s faculty of medicine : Prof. @evanmelliott and Dr. Orly Weisberg & team discovered that Turning off the autism-linked gene CHD8 in adult brain immune cells (microglia) — not neurons — led to autism-like behaviors in males. A surprising twist in autism research, highlighting sex differences and the brain’s immune system.

Prof. Nir Qvit and his team from the Azrieli faculty of medicine at @Bar_ilan developed CVP-220—a peptide that protects #heart cells during #heartattacks by keeping mitochondria balanced. It blocks only harmful MARCH5-Mfn2 interactions, leaving healthy cell functions untouched. A big step for heart health! #HeartResearch #Innovation

Thank you, Barak! ☺️ Very grateful to all my amazing colleagues and students who made this possible!
Barak Hirshberg@barak_hirshberg
Congratulations to my good friend and colleague @SorkinRaya for her tenure and promotion to associate professor!

A new study, published in @NatureComms, demonstrates an essential role for CFAP100 in #keratinocyte division.
It shows that CFAP100 couples microtubule glutamylation to spindle pole integrity in keratinocytes to promote epidermal development. go.nature.com/46rKp55
